The damage has been done, and it is a colossal one. The cute comments that flooded in when the teaser of the episode was released have now disappeared. The public has fixated on a 10-second from the entire episode, completely forgetting about the marriage clip and everything else. No one is discussing that aspect. Incel and misogynists are enjoying criticizing and sl*t shaming Deepika, while Ranveer's image has taken a hit. This is not a positive development for his career or for his Indian fans who tend to view their hero as a strong, dominant figure. He might lose some of his fans. Deepika's PR team will attempt to handle the situation in the coming days, weeks, or even months, but it might take longer this time. The situation is sad. The only silver lining for fans is that people are talking about them, making them the most relevant people in Bollywood at the moment. Let's hope the situation calms down soon.
Nah no damage is done, its the usual over hype that happens after every kwk episode, then it dies down. Ranveer isn't losing any fans, his fans are heavily supporting him with this, and anyone with sense and a brain knows that there is nothing to over react about.
Plus nothing particularly new was said tbh, ranveer and deepika had already spoken about most of this stuff in previous interviews, but coz its kwk its gets alot more hype.
It is the usual trollers and haters making the most noise about it, and ranveer and deepkia have had worse trolling than this.
And ranveer has never had the image of being the dominant person in the relationship, he has always been seen as the guy who loves her like crazy and expresses it, that image is still there, its not changed.
I'm just shocked at how judgmental people are being about two people dating, yes they were dating, they weren't married, they weren't committed, and alot of people around the world date like that, yet when rs and dp actually mention it and be honest about it they get all sorts of abuses and judgments thrown at them.
Tbh they probably are now regretting being so honest and open about their story now, they probably thought people would understand but obviously many don't and instead are s*ut shaming dp and calling rs a pushover, after this I dont think they will be so open about their relationship anymore, I feel they will become alot more private.
And its sad that there were so many things said in the episode thats shows how beautiful their relationship is, but people are just fixated on that one bit about when they started dating.
